The Christian community at St. Stephens Church of Uganda Butsibo in Kabwohe - Sheema district on Friday received 100 iron sheets from Dott Services Limited as part of the company’s contribution in the construction of their Reverend’s house.
The iron sheets were handed by the Dott Managing Director Maheswara Reddy to Minister of Science,Technology and Innovation, Elioda Tumwesigye on behalf of the church.
Speaking after receiving the iron sheets, Tumwesigye applauded the construction company for giving back to the community through construction of the lay leaders’s house.
“On behalf of the West Ankole Diocese, I am more than grateful for this donation that will aid our community in building a church house for our reverend. May God bless your works,” Tumwesigye noted.
Dott Services Limited Chairman Venugopal Rao said they had decided to give back to the community as part of their corporate social responsibility to the people where they operate from.
“We do a lot of support to communities where we are having our projects running. In this particular community we constructed the Ishaka-Kagamba road and the community in the area was so supportive,” Rao said.
Rosette Mutahunga who represented the Christian Community from Kabwohe noted that they were having difficulties raising the much needed funds for the completion of the house adding that the donation came in at the right time.
“We had completed the actual construction up to the plate level but needed support in roofing the house. We approached one of our friends who is one of the directors in Dott Services Limited and he offered to help. We are grateful,” Mutahunga said.
St. Stephens Church Butsibo is under the West Ankole Diocese headed by Rt. Rev. Johnson Twinomujuni.
